This fried ravioli is so good, it's impossible to eat just one! Crispy on the outside and soft and cheesy on the inside, it's irresistible.

Ingredients

  • 1 bag frozen cheese ravioli, thawed
  • 2 cups buttermilk
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups Italian-style bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • Marinara sauce (for dipping)
  • Vegetable or olive oil for frying

Directions

  1. 1

    Pour vegetable or olive oil into a deep pot or large skillet to about 2 inches in depth. Heat the oil over medium heat to 350°F. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature for consistent frying.

  2. 2

    Place the buttermilk in a shallow bowl. Put the all-purpose flour in a separate shallow bowl. Mix the Italian-seasoned bread crumbs in a third bowl.

  3. 3

    Dip each ravioli into the flour, coating lightly. Submerge the floured ravioli into the buttermilk, ensuring it’s fully covered. Finally, dredge the ravioli in the bread crumbs, pressing gently to adhere the coating.

  4. 4

    Working in batches to avoid overcrowding, carefully lower the coated ravioli into the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried ravioli and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle the fried ravioli with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. Serve warm with marinara sauce for dipping.
